Big decisions. Bigger season ahead. 🎭✨

Tonight, the MPP Board gathered to choose our production for 2026 — and trust us, you’re going to want to stay tuned. The title remains under wraps for now… but an exciting reveal is coming soon. 👀

05/05/2026

Sunday, MPP Board members had a wonderful evening at the Bunce Performing Arts Gala, celebrating the power of live theatre and the incredible talent across our metro community 🎭

We’re proud to support and uplift the arts of all theaters, working together to inspire creativity and tell meaningful stories.

Even more exciting—this summer, we can’t wait to see Bunce's production of Matilda! If Sunday's preview was any indication, this looks to be a wonderfully moving show!
